- Yes, its quite easy, depending on what system you are copying these to.
- I believe that a program called "sox" will convert these files, and is
- available as source, compilable on any platform.
-
- I use Linux, and the Lsox package available on sunsite. All I ahve to do
- is type
- sox quack quack.au
- and it will make an .au file that I can play.
- sox quack quack.wav
- makes a .wav file.
-
- If you use DOS or OS/2, I think you can archie for something called sox
- to do the same thing...
